(GOP) — They Could Change, But They Won't by BooMan Thu Aug 7th, 2014 at 12:32:26 PM EST Rand Paul lays down some truth: ?The party can't become the opposite of what it is. If you tell people from Alabama, Mississippi or Georgia, ‘You know what, guys, we've been wrong, and we're gonna be the pro-gay-marriage party,' they're either gonna stay home or — I mean, many of these people joined the Republican Party because of these social issues. So I don't think we can completely flip.? It's really a choice. Does the GOP want to compete in states outside of the Deep South and make themselves into a viable national party that can win a presidential election? The answer is ‘no.' And, for now, this is a very good thing.
